Discoveries on the road to a joyfilled life ~ Paula McFarlane Insight Coaching

When you are in Alignment it is effortless

I heard these words come out of my mouth this morning over coffee and like a message from the universe they stuck!

What I was commenting on was the resolution of a challenge another business woman had been dealing with. This situation grew out of a knowing that something wasn’t lining up with her values. The situation had escalated to the point of almost becoming catastrophic for her business until she said no to what was not in alignment for her. From the moment she refused to continue tolerating this values conflict everything changed. Her business recovered and is thriving beyond what she could have imagined possible.

When we are in alignment it is effortless……

When we are in alignment it becomes effortless….

When we are in alignment it feels effortless….

Let that sink in for a moment because its BIG

Hearing myself saying this asked me to consider all of the parts of my business that don’t feel effortless. I began to get curious about what feels like hard work for me and also to consider what drains my energy and on the flipside what fills me up and feels effortless in what I do.

I realised that I was allowing myself to be influenced by other Coaches with bigger more established businesses than my own. I was hearing the hype about this system or that model and was “shoulding” myself to do things someone else’s way. I had allowed myself to feel I had to change my approach to succeed and I was beginning to feel defeated by the thought that I had to hustle to get where I want to go.

Hustle is not effortless for me, hustle is not in my zone of genius or in alignment with my values.

The effortless parts of my business fall neatly within my zone of genius. Supporting people, teaching, coaching, leading others to clarity and alignment. When I allow myself to be me, to be authentic, to share my gifts,to speak my truth, to do what fills me up, that’s when I see results in my business that’s when it’s effortless

Wow Heart expanding moment!

Clarity is such a beautiful thing and I love that this level of clarity allows me to step away from anything and anyone that pulls me away from whats effortless. I don’t need to prescribe to any other way of doing this than my own

There are no more “shoulds” for me

From today my guiding principle in my business is “does this feel effortless to me”
